Hi everyone,
I am currently working in a Public Health Billing role and looking to advance my skills. Public health billing has unique complexities compared to traditional private practice-especially around sliding fee scales, grant funding, vaccines, and preventative services.
I am seeking high-quality training courses or modules for ICD-10 and CPT coding that translate well to the public health sector.
If you work in public health billing, administration, or clinical operations:
Which training platforms or certification bodies (e.g., AAPC, AHIMA) have content most relevant to local/state health departments?
- Do you know of any specialized courses that cover public health specifics, such as HRSA guidelines, FQHC billing, or Medicaid state plans?
- Are there any free or grant-funded training resources provided by public health training centers (PHTCs) or the CDC?
- I want to ensure my training directly impacts my daily workflow and billing accuracy for our community programs.
Thank you for your recommendations!
